Deathwish (2017)<\/span><\/p>\n Gemma Peacocke (1984)<\/span><\/p>\n Two Five Octave Marimbas<\/span><\/p>\n Four Percussionists<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cI wrote <\/span>Death Wish<\/span><\/i> after watching a short film featuring New Zealand survivors of sexual assault. One of the survivors, Hinewirangi Kohu-Morgan, spoke about the out-of-control spiralling of her life for many years and how she developed what she called a death wish. In the piece I thought about the spooling and unspooling of energy and how we are all bound and driven by forces both within and beyond ourselves.<\/span><\/p>\n With the greatest of respect for Hinewirangi Kohu-Morgan who has used her life to create art and music and to help survivors of abuse and those who have perpetrated abuse.<\/span><\/p>\n
